CALI - Snack pt.2 at Dirt Dog

You would think after lunch and first snack of milk buns we would calm down a little before meeting Christel's brother for dinner but no, that would've been too sensible. Not only did we go for snack part two at dirt dog but we stopped at Coco along the way to get some bubble tea too. Our stomachs are insane when we're on vacation but I'm happy I found a friend who handles marathon eating better than I do.

Christel has been mentioning dirt dog since we started planning our trip and its right next to USC where her brother currently goes to school so it was a convenient spot for us to check out while waiting for dinner. We were trying to be a little good about food and not fill up too much so we could eat dinner with him and his friends so instead of ordering a hot dog we just decided to share an order of elote fries

The line for this place goes out the door but honestly we were inside and ordering in less than 15minutes. They have a system where you can't save a table until you've placed your order at the counter but theres just enough space inside that there always seems to be just enough seats waiting for you once you've ordered. 

I'm not a huge fan of hot dogs but fries and corn are my jam so this is a perfect combination. Elote fries come with corn, lime mayo, chili powder, cotija cheese, cilantro, and bacon. This was a perfect dish for me. I loved every component; the fries weren't too crispy but not soggy either. There was just enough corn to go with the potatoes. The kick of lime and spice were great and the lime mayo on top was a great creaminess as well. I would go back just for these fries honestly but they also have a bunch of other combinations I would love to try. I'm a sucker for variety and toppings on fries are never a bad call to me.
